A yellow Quadrantid meteor passing through Ursa Major at 00:15 UT on 4 January 2026. The meteor is just to the right of the handle of the 'Plough' asterism that forms part of Ursa Major. The twin stars Mizar and Alcor can be seen above left of the meteor. The sky is a blueish colour due to light from the full Moon. There some trees in the foreground. Shot taken with a Canon 250D DSLR and 16mm lens at 6s exp, 16mm fl, f/2.8, ISO-400.

Eliot Herman in Arizona captured this #Quadrantid meteor on January 3: "I set my camera up sighted to capture the path of an expected earthgrazer. As the #BigDipper rose my earthgrazer flashed straight up and was captured on my cameras." Thanks!

Sunset stroll up to the deserted former fishing village of Port Quin. A beautiful spot for a walk along the coast without the hustle and bustle! Not sure, but I may have caught something from the #Quadrantid meteor shower, I'm no expert?
